What the fuck? How did Fairy Tail beat out this masterpiece and get a new game? We could have been getting a Hunter x Hunter rpg if not for .7% on that poll.
What the fuck? How did Fairy Tail beat out this masterpiece and get a new game...
Can somebody explain why this shit gets dicksucked so much exactly?
People tell me its "peak shounen manga" but that's vague as fuck.
I actually just started reading about a week ago. It's really good. Not what I expected at all.
It’s their way of coping with the fact that it’s another kid’s manga series.
>b-but my mature themes!!
Just as bad as the MLP faggots.
Its only good if you read less than 7 books in your life
>looking for philosophy in your kids comics
jfl at hunter”chads”

Meant for
He sure didn’t plan around those hiatus did he
i posted it again
It's overrated, but it's pretty good.
It's also overhated because it's pretty good. As long as you just enjoy it and don't buy into the "Perfect Shounen" shit, you'll find a lot to love. You get to laugh at both the people who hail it as the second coming of Christ and the retards desperately trying to undercut it.
Watching for yourself and stop listening to other people's opinions. Stupid fucking drone
HxH is mediocre for the most of the story, but Yorknew and Chimera Ant arcs are one of the best storytelling in shonen.
People like it for the same reason they like Jojo: the arcs are extremely distinct on a tonal level. Each arc feels completely different. It doesn't all just blend into one generic mishmash like everything else.
Both of those together make up almost half the story in the anime, though. Dark Continent is pretty cool too, if we're going by the Manga.
Reminder in the garbage writing world of shonen, having friends makes you more powerful than God
>go to different area
>weird shit starts happening

>piano plays and one of the main characters makes a speech before beating them
It’s enjoyable at least
Did she ever have a nen power?
Why would you bring this up in a HxH thread? It's one of the few shows where power of friendship doesn't mean a god damn thing.
Because if it's anything like the source itll take a millenia to progress 3 minutes into the story
Meanwhile in HxH.
O
Any anime game is shit, unless its original or plotless. Hunter x Hunter is genuinely my favorite series. I do not want to fucking see the Chimera Ant arc adapted into a fucking video game. A fighting game with no real context or continuity would be fine, though.
Fuck an RPG, I want a Hunter x Hunter fighting game.
>Gon gets a free non-crippled pass because his fren wishes it
You're full of shit
That arc is full of shit. What a stupid moment. That said. Gon still can't use Nen AND he's split from Killua, so the payoff to JUSTing himself is pretty low.
Yea Forums shitposting itself to oblivion. There is more discussion about hxh is not actually a masterpiece than there is discussion about how hxh is actually a masterpiece. At least on Yea Forums. Most hxh discussion there during hiatuses is falseflags/roleplayers.
>Promoting Hiatus x Hiatus
Why would you bother encouraging something that the author can't be fucked to finish? The manga is slower than fucking Berserk.
Gon got fucking removed entirely from the plot. What more do you want? He gets to live basically as a cripple. It's entirely plausible he will literally never fight again. I wouldn't be surprised if Togashi actually chooses to never bring him back.
>Hiatusfags spamming their garbage again
Babes. Art.
I want you to stop lying through your teeth when you say "____________ is different from other shonen" when all of it is the same shit.
>All of it is the same shit
>Cites one example that is still a heavily negative outcome of the prior arc
>Said prior arc completely negates the "power of friendship" argument by itself
Hunter "chads" are sad, but this level of straw grasping is really lame.
I want to fuck Killua.
manipulator, used on the bees that slept on her hat
I genuinely believe Hunter x Hunter is the most organic shounen ever written. It is one of the least contrived things I have ever read, regardless of genre. I strongly hold the opinion that Togashi is a masterful writer.
>The manga is slower than fucking Berserk
Technically untrue. Berserk started almost 10 years earlier but barely has 3 more volumes than HxH. Plus Miura only releases 1 chapter when he returns, while Togashi releases a batch of 10.
>>everything is obviously planned out and not just being made up on the spot to keep the series going
The opposite is true. He sees something he likes and builds an arc around it. Like Greed Island is just Yu-Gi-Oh season 1. Heck... the entire concept of Nen is nonsense. There are arena fights with people fighting using Nen abilities. And these fights are on TV! yet somehooow.... nen is still a 'secret' to even the most powerful people
Show's quality aside, so few people talk about the excellent OST and it's a shame. The Chimera Arc, especially, has stellar orchestral stuff.

>great art
Everything else is true. But the art is passable at best.
It's great but not used as well as it could be in the actual show. I remember the moment when Gon almost kills Morel (which is supposed to be a tragic moment) they played this "epic" fanfare music. youtube.com
The fights broadcast on TV are always non lethal, and they follow general sparring rules with coaches. The Chrollo vs Hisoka fight is an excellent example of how incredibly powerful nen users who actually are using nen with the intent to kill would fight, and it turned out fucking disastrous. All of the fights in Heaven's Arena during its arc were plausible for TV broadcast. The top fights of Heaven's Arena are not Netero vs Meruem tier.
>HiatusxHiatus
Yeah, that really bothered me too. Funny you mention that, because I watched that clip a few days ago and had the same internal gripe with it.
Nobody is defending Togashi's shit drawings, idiot. Togashi at his best is really great. As much as I wish he just found another artist and moved to writing full time, I can see why he wouldn't want to.
>monkey paw'd
>it's another arena fighter
So trying to convince trolling retards, they just want to type all day long about their confirmation bias over something they haven't read because it looks a certain way.
Back on topic I'd say that hxh is difficult to make a premise for in a video game based off nen alone. Everyone wants to have their own insane nen and I think anything in a modern game that wouldn't try to do something with it would be kinda disappointing.
>great art
?
Shit. I should've specified 2D fighter. At least by Arc Sys.
There's not a single hot girl in the HxH universe. FT has plenty of those.
thats some high level of making excuses here. I think I remember Kastro having an absurd ability. I don't even care what type of excuse one could make here... but if nen fights are fights during which someone can use his abilities there will be bound to be fights that make it clear some magic bullshit is up. Also let's ignore the fact that people having such powers can hardly be kept secret realistically. Especially not from Kings/politicians and leaders.
Jesus christ dude his artstyle is average, even at best. HxH's appeal relies on the plot, fights, characters and world design. Stop being a cock sucker.
Brain made of rotten cum
There's plenty of cute ones, though
Yea, I agree the latter half of your post. Also, what about the dark continent? Seems unrealistic nobody would know about that. Also, why the fuck was the boat at the beginning of the series a wooden sailboat? That didn't seem to fit with the time period. Also, why the fuck is the dark continent boat a giant whale with a lake and a boat inside it? That seems unrealistic and really expensive. Also, why did the first part of the hunter exam take place in a gigantic tunnel? Who built that? What function does it serve other than to just have people run down it? Wouldn't that be ridiculously expensive? Why not just have them run in circles on a track if they wanted to test endurance? It's almost as if nobody reading it actually gives a fuck if the world is portrayed as literally as you seem to think it should. My guess is you probably find the notion of hxh annoying, sort of as a social concept. The discussion of hxh annoys you, the people who discuss it annoys you, you've failed in separating the series from its audience, creating a stigma in which you intentionally hyperfocus on aspects of a series that nobody really ever claimed to defend or praise, or even really detract from the experience. Nen is inherently unrealistic, chimera ants are unrealistic, Togashi's depiction of the world is unrealistic. What exactly is the point of identifying these facts? The show requires a suspension of disbelief, as with practically every piece of fiction ever written. Will you actually make an effort to try to understand HxH or will you cling to these notions of authenticity you've fabricated and convince yourself that they are the things that truly matter. Stop shitposting so goddamn much. You shouldn't be contrarian to the point that you unintentionally mislead yourself into saying retarded shit. Does looking like a stupid idiot on the internet scare you that much? You gain very little from resisting HxH.
I am 100% serious. I think Togashi's artwork, and more specifically his framing, is an important part of the experience. I would rather see him draw and write weekly than see him only write weekly. I don't think we will ever see the former, though.
When your manga is being delayed time after time again while the other manga gets released consistently what do you expect to happen?
I enjoy Hunter x Hunter and Fairy Tail anime and while Hunter x Hunter is philosophically deeper Fairy Tail is just fun
It's extremely well done
Yorknew Arc is extremely fun and Chimera Ant Arc feels like a piece of classic literature
Hunter X Hunter is not a gay shota manga?
put some waifus in your shonenshit and maybe it would
I forgot her name but the nerdy girl with big tits.
Nope kurapika is actually a girl and she lusts for leorios massive dong.
Imagine unrelated, Togashi can't write, or draw female characters. At this point I'm pretty sure he hates the idea of them existing in his works, and so do his fujo followers.
It does shounen differently. You'd think that green kid was the star and beat up all the bad guys with an insane power level, but he doesn't.
Also, pedophiles.

Shut up. Cheadle is cute, even if she's just a jobber.
Ugly jobber, what purpose does she even serve in HxH?
Being a mentor for Leorio, since he's the only one who hasn't really had one.

Not that user, but

Yeah, that's kind of his gimmick, retard. His thing IS that he's hard to hunt down.
>He's able to outskill old hunters who trained their whole life
Literally no. Gon, for being a shonen protag, jobs. A lot.
>Alluka
Hinted at with family photos, but I'll admit that is your ONLY decent example since it was somewhat out of nowhere.
I hate that this is actually real.
It makes low IQ people mad as fuck since they're too stupid to understand its greatness.
O MY ASSPULL NEN
HxH already has plenty of games
>Yeah, that's kind of his gimmick, retard. His thing IS that he's hard to hunt down.
nice.
so ? he still awnser for the reunion like a good dog, get hit by a "surprise" attack from leolio who might as well be the weakest hunter in existence
fuck you, you know how well he tried to be untraceable for the whole time, and then he would just awnser the phone ? fuck you
>Literally no. Gon, for being a shonen protag, jobs. A lot.
yeah, he can escape the spider's member several times in a row, able to take down an admin that cheats without trying, he also catch up with white shota's training in no time despite being an engineered perfect killer. Let's also mention the tower fights while we're at it
>Alluka
the delivery was shit, with this single arc the author clearly states that gon is a fucking mary sue that will never be hurt no matter what, as if having his hand growing back wasn't enough
why did a much more popular shonen get a game over a shonen that isn't as popular????
It boggles my mind
Yoshihiro Togashi makes fun stories and characters and is an overall cool dude
but why does he not make waifus, or even decent female characters?
>He still answers for the reunion
Because he respects Netero and his dying wishes. Also, he outright states that he let Leorio punch him. Also, he's implied to be able to use nen abilities he's been affected with, since he uses that punch later in the manga.
>Escape the spider's members several times in a row
Twice. One was him escaping from Nobunaga with Killua's help, by taking advantage of Nobunaga using his En to search the building instead of looking outside. The second was all Kurapika's doing since he had Chrollo as a hostage. That's kind of a big part of that situation.
>Catch up with Killua
During Greed Island, most of the training was focused on Gon and this was AFTER it was explained that Gon had more potential for growth despite Killua's inherent superiority.
>Tower fights
With the jobbers that specialize only in fighting rookies? Those same jobbers that weren't expecting Gon/Killua to have such insane potential?
Geez. I'm starting to think you never watched/read this series and you're just parroting the complaints people launch against it.
And another thing, because even though I conceded that Alluka was bullshit, your retardation knows no bounds.
>with this single arc the author clearly states that gon is a fucking mary sue that will never be hurt no matter what
I like how you just gloss over the fact that even though he's healed, he can't use nen at all.
>gives you perfect cat girl with doll joints
>still cannot be satiated
BASED. Shounen animes inspiring tons of young children to build their social circles, improve socially and work out. DBZ, HxH, Naruto, MHA and AoT are the fucking GOATS. Love to watch em and discuss em with my homies in the gym. Saw a few fat fucks and trannies watching moeshit and seinen on the streets yesterday though, that's cool too I guess..
>Pitou
>girl
Is this a joke?
There is nothing like the York New City arc.
apart from that is just good enough. But that arc is quite unique.
Literally the only Shonen jumps series that handles edge well.
Also Pitou is super dead, Machi soon to follow. Proof there's only two type of female character in a Togashi show, irrelevant support, or dead villain.
>asexual
>has breasts
um :)
>he can't use nen at all.
yes, just like the hero academia protag who can't use powers right ?
you know as well as me he'll asspull something and gon will be stronger than ever
>he respects netero and let leorio punch him
for what purpose ? the dude is clearly shown as a guy that never gave a shit about anything and now he cares ?
He even meet his son, the "the world is actually bigger" is the main theme of the manga to the point where there was a "virtual" world, it was already prevalent
>training focused on gon
yes, in several weeks (I forgot) he can catch up years of trainings, nice, even goku doesn't grow this hard
>jobbers fightning rookies
yes, because we can't have other interesting characters training hard to hone their skill, that would require planning from the mangaka isn't it ?
the very existence of the tower is directly linked with the training of people, and it takes place right after the hunter exam, any self respecting fighter would chose this moment to go in, the absolute absence of any relevant fighter in this part just show it was a spur of the moment idea the mangaka had just to give a bigger powerlevel to the protagonists, it's not part of the world, it's just a convenient plot device to give gon reflexes and his fight against hisoka with AGAIN the same end result "the world is big isn't it ?"
>you know just as well as me he'll asspull something
So now we're talking about the future instead of the work we have right now. Tell you what. If that happens, I'll give you this point. Until then, it doesn't mean anything.
>For what purpose
Leorio intrigued him because he showed sincere care for his son. He wanted to "know who his son's friends were" or some shit.
>yes, because we can't have other interesting characters training hard to hone their skill, that would require planning from the mangaka isn't it
But we do. Literally half the cast is heads and shoulders above Gon and Killua, and they stay there.
But if they make a HxH game, it would be in development hell for years.
>>for what purpose ? the dude is clearly shown as a guy that never gave a shit about anything and now he cares ?
>>the very existence of the tower is directly linked with the training of people
>>any self respecting fighter would chose this moment to go in
>I never read/watched the series but I'm gonna pretend like I know what I'm talking about
Wrong. “Average” is something that matches the same quality as everything else and doesn’t stand out.
Togashi’s artwork can be considered below the “standard” in terms of how rough it is, but his sense of style and composition definitely makes it distinct and way more engaging than just the typical clean cut non-challenging prettyboy manga art you would see in any random page of a shonen magazine.
I remember reading in Bakuman, that one series about working with Jump by the Death Note guys, that Jump actually requires that the story has some kind of element that stresses the importance of friendship as well as some other things that I forget. That's why so many series have the "power of friendship" and stuff like that either because they're in their magazine or because it's inspired by a series from there.
HunterxHunter has zero waifus
that's why
All anime licensed games are shit, are you literally 13 years old?
Unless you interpret Pitou as a girl.
>and Chimera Ant Arc feels like a piece of classic literature
cringe
The Hajime no Ippo games I've played were actually pretty fun. Check out the GBA game if you like Punchout.
Pitou is hot but she isn't sexualized. Contrast with something like FT where every other panel has some tits or ass shot.
Pitou isn't female, contrast with FT where Ezra and Lucy are definitely females.
>Neferpitou will never ride you to orgasm multiple times in a row with nothing but a curious, but playful expression on its face
Wrong
Fairy Tail is really popular. I think it has an extra attached “cool” factor in Japan too among normalfags who like the character merch and saw the movies.
"well"
That’s what makes Pitou hotter.
It’s way more effective if the official artwork is modest and the reader is forced to become the perverted one.
>The demon that said he could grope her pads er chest.
Fucking cheated.
This shit is just goofy and laughable edge like Tails Gets Trolled.
It’s enjoyable in its own silly way but not if it’s trying to be serious.
based
This guy gets all anime cancer should be quarantined to Yea Forums.
Not in HxH. It laughs at tropes like this.
One could say that Gon's friends were detrimental to him, or at least, Gon's friendship in Kite, as that is what led Gon to go on a self-destructive path.
gay shota sex
why didn't he let him kiss him back?
He's gay, not a fag.
Gotta let your bitch know that its only okay when you want it.
Why do you retards post these panels as if they aren't fixed by the time the actual books are released?
how cruel :c
moefags are obsessively tsundere
Meh, I'm more upset at the fact that out of thousands of unique and interesting anime with far betters elements for an rpg for people to chose from, they'd choose the most generic one in the bunch. That whole list was just shitty. They could have a full pizza but these fuckers would rather eat the shit from the people who ate the bread.
>out of thousands of unique and interesting anime
Name a few frognigger.
t. looking for new anime to watch
Pitou is the best girl and is my wife
this gets me everytime
HUNTER CHADS ASSEMBLE
your gay now sweety :)
Shaman King but mostly the manga, the anime wasn't bad but only tells like 1/3 of the story and went into filler. Hell I wouldn't mind if more manga got video game adaptions now that I think about it.
Pitou is female
yur canon gay now enjoy it fagboy
Hisoka
To this day I'm still surprised Naruto didn't have too many turn base RPG's. The whole element system just screams turn based rpg. I'm just shocked no one did anything with it.
I'm watching the anime, and just got into the Greed Island arc, and holy shit I hate this arc so much.
Incorrect
literally one turboautist spamming every board with it, just like berserk
If it actually got a game it would just be another shitty arena fighter.
Vidya adaptation of anime/manga are pure shit. Stop wanting them.
please remove her pants
god damn I hate incels, stop thinking with your teenage libidos for once
she takes her clothes off herself in that one fight...
What kind of HxH game would you want? I'd personally like a fighting game.
when's the rest of this being added to nutflex
he's in /dbs/ right now
Did he get around to saying what the deal with Gon is yet? Did his adult form cost him all of his nen and now has to start over from scratch, or did it sever him from nen completely forever? All I remember is something about how he can't "see" nen anymore but he could still feel it.
I always wanted a HxH game but rather than following the main cast and story its about the world to explore and playing as your own character. Maybe the customization should be like in Star Wars Jedi Academy, your character will already have a name and personality but you at least get to decide their gender and customize how they look like.
As a freelance hunter who lives doing whatever they feel like doing and since trying to put nen and custom hatsu in video game form is probably nearly impossible it would probably work best if your character is a specialist that has an ability similar to Chrollo's but works differently. Also for gameplay reasons it would work too so you can make your own custom nen moveset and not just be limited to one category and ability. Rather than stealing abilities since the MC wouldn't be a dick instead their conditions would be something like, 1. observe the hatsu you are interested in action, 2. learn about how it works and what category it is and any conditions it needs, 3. get permission from the original hatsu creator to learn their ability and have them say something like "I give you permission", 4. Train your nen and since its a video game you'll have a exp bar you need to fill out before you can use the hatsu.
I guess with the modern times the medium you would use would be something like a smartphone or tablet that keeps the data on all the nen and hatsu you learn and use. As a beginner nen user you are only limited to use 1 ability but as you get stronger your nen gets strong enough to use 2 abilities at once. Maybe at endgame when you become a nen master you can then use 3 abilities at once.
cont.
Even though it has nothing to do with the main story throughout the game you'd hear about events from the main story, like hearing about the Phantom Troupe attack in Yorknew, Greed Island being cleared for the first time, and the Hisoka vs Chrollo fight. Maybe also a mission where after you made a name for yourself you get hired to take out a bunch of Chimera Ants that have established a nest, perhaps that one alligator ant that we never saw or heard from again.
I know this will never happen and if there ever was a game it'd just be the main story with you only being able to play as Gon or some shitty shallow fighting game.
lol
He has aura, because every living being has aura. Nen is the manipulation of your aura. As far as we know Gon can't use Nen anymore.
Do I read the manga, watch the '99 anime, or watch the 2011 anime?
I think nen is a great way to handle power creep. It can be used in different ways from a straight forward attack (Uvo just put a ton of nen into his fist and threw a right straight and made it explode on impact) to more nuanced usage (Hisoka's bungee gum and texture surprise) to completely non-combat oriented (the nen exorcist from greed island or Bisky's nen masseuse that can instantly revitalize and heal). Even characters that are OP like Netero and Kurapika have weaknesses or can be hard countered by other users.
Watch the 2011 anime then read the rest of the manga.
2011, then go back and read the manga.
It was good at the beginning. Got stupid midway and I stopped watching after the bugs. I don't remember much anymore but I remember everything not fitting over time. OPM is my go to. It at least connects through each arch.
An IRC (Before Discord) group started sucking its dick to an obnoxious degree ironically and it stuck since then.
It's still a good manga though.
What poll?
Reading the manga is always the correct answer. Anyway, both adaptations are worth a watch. In terms of artstyle, the 90s adaptation is superior. The 2011 one is way more happy-shota-colorful, but it's the most faithful to the manga. I haven't watched the ova series but I guess it's just more of the same
Who the fuck cares? HxH is just WORDSWORDSWORDS now, worse than the shittiest Buckley comic.
Watch the first '99 episode or the Jump preview ova so you don't miss out on something important that the '11 series skips, then watch that one. '99 is good but has a little bit of filler and only goes up to Greed Island.
O my aching back
I want to have my first kiss with Pitou!
Its a good idea to read the manga from the beginning, if you do go the anime to manga route. While its a decent adaption and closer to the manga than the 99 anime, the 2011 anime skipped out on a lot of little details for a series that focuses more on build up and suspense than actual fighting. A good clue on this is read the first chapter then watch the first episode. The difference is that great. Just to save yourself from looking like a faggot in HxH discussions when people mention something you don't remember happening in the anime. The 99 anime is ok but full of filler and didn't get far compared to the 2011 anime. It also made the series look much darker and edger than the manga so comparing the 99 anime to the manga is like night and day.
Wasn't sure if they confirmed whether or not he would ever be able to use nen again. Like did he just trade all of his nen that he already had and got sent back to his "pre-awakened nen" state, or if he had to trade all of the nen potential that he would ever have for that one fight.
Is this show actually good
No we just like shitposting about it.
>It got second place
Next project maybe? Fairy Tail being an RPG has me interested tho.
It can be ridiculous in the best possible way.
I’ve literally fallen asleep reading some of the boat chapters. At some point I got fed up and just skipped all the dialogue unless it looked like something important happened. Now I don’t even bother checking for updates.
Good characters, good power system, and some great story arcs. Unfortunately the author is a huge faggot who goes on hiatus constantly, which prevents it from being as popular as it should be.
I hope kurapika puts his dick on her, the baby already aproves him as his new father
I just catch up when a few chapters are out. The only manga that I always read every new chapter when its out is Hajime no Ippo.
HxH may not be the shounen for you, why don't you give black clover or mha a go? these are pretty easy to understand
Fairy Tail is garbage. Why do you care so much that a game if it exists?
Chrollo cheated because he knew he would've lost in a real 1 on 1 fight against Hisoka.
I clearly read up to the boat arc retard. Sorry I don’t want entire pages with nothing but words and poorly drawn characters in black suits standing around doing literally nothing.
Because it is the reason we aren't getting a HxH rpg.
Lewds.
